I am in need of someone to point me in the right direction.... I wasn't Planning on breeding my Fat-Tails yet, after losing one of my fav Geckos... But Last night I noticed 1 egg half burried in the sand. The egg was perfectly oval with no dents (All The previous eggs I have found had dents in them). So I took 2 rubber made containers and one inside of the other, One had a pan of water and a oven rack on top of the water. Then I placed my egg in a deli cup with moist vermiculite and put it on the rack. I am using an incandesent lamp to provide heat. the temp is 86oF
I woke up this morning and notice the egg started to dent in, Is this a sign the egg is drying up??? if so what can I do... If anything??
dose anyone know of any good websites on building an incubator Or dose anyone have a plan for a small incubator ??? I looked at buying one but they are very expencive (4 chicken eggs $140.00). So I wanted to make one??Any ideas ????
What should the humidity be in my incubator???
Is 86oF a good Temp to incubate my eggs at???
How long dose it take for the fat-Tail eggs to Hatch???
When Incubating shoud the egg be completly covered by the Vermiculite???
Is it normal for a African Fat-Tail to lay only ONE EGG, insted of the two eggs I got Before? I read some where that it varys between 1-2 eggs per clutch and up to 7 clutches in a breeding season??
Anyone I need some advice! Plaese!
